Due to their advantages compared with planar structures, rolled-up tubes have been applied in many fields, such as field-effect transistors, compact capacitors, inductors, and integrative sensors. On the other hand, because of its perfect insulating nature, ultrahigh mechanical strength and atomic thickness property, 2D hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) is a very suitable material for rolled-up memory applications. In this work, a tubular 3D resistive random access memory (RRAM) device based on rolled-up h-BN tube is realized, which is achieved by self-rolled-up technology. The tubular RRAM device exhibits bipolar resistive switching behavior, nonvolatile data storage ability, and satisfactorily low programming current compared with other 2D material-based RRAM devices. Moreover, by releasing from the substrate, the footprint area of the tubular device is reduced by six times. This tubular RRAM device has great potential for increasing the data storage density, lowering the power consumption, and may be applied in the fields of rolled-up systems and sensing-storage integration.

A highly effective method for creating a supramolecular metallogel of Ni(II) ions (NiA-TA) has been developed in our work. This approach uses benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylic acid as a low molecular weight gelator (LMWG) in DMF solvent. Rheological studies assessed the mechanical properties of the Ni(II)-metallogel, revealing its angular frequency response and thixotropic behaviour.

Due to the stochastic formation of conductive filaments (CFs), analog resistive random-access memory (RRAM) struggles to simultaneously achieve low variability, high linearity, and symmetry in conductance tuning, thus complicating on-chip training and limiting versatility of RRAM based computing-in-memory (CIM) chips. In this study, we present a simple and effective approach using monolayer (ML) MoS as interlayer to control the CFs formation in TiO switching layer. The limited S-vacancies (S) in MoSO interlayer can further confine the position, size, and quantity of CFs, resulting in a highly uniform and symmetrical switching behavior.

A resistive switching device with precise control over the formation of conductive filaments (CF) holds immense potential for high-density memory arrays and atomic-scale in-memory computing architectures. While ion migration and electrochemical switching mechanisms are well understood, controlling the evolution of CF remains challenging for practical resistive random-access memory (RRAM) deployment. This study introduces a systematic approach to modulate oxygen vacancies (OV) in HfO films of Ag/HfO/Pt-based RRAM devices by controlling the substrate temperature.

Resistive random access memory (RRAM) has emerged as a promising candidate for next-generation storage technologies due to its simple structure, high running speed, excellent durability, high integration density, and low power consumption. This paper focuses on the application of organic-inorganic hybrid perovskite (OIHP) materials in RRAM by introducing an innovative three-dimensional POPA modification strategy, which is realized by binding octa-amine-polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (8NH-POSS) onto the side chains of poly(acrylic acid) (PAA), thereby enhancing the material's resilience under elevated temperatures and humidity conditions. POPA cross-links with perovskite grains at crystalline boundaries through multiple -NH and -C═O chemical anchoring sites on its branch chain, enhancing the grain adhesion, optimizing the film quality, and improving the cage structure distribution at the perovskite grain boundaries.

The importance of hardware security increases significantly to protect the vast amounts of private data stored on edge devices. Physical unclonable functions (PUFs) are gaining prominence as hardware security primitives due to their ability to generate true random digital keys by exploiting the inherent randomness of the physical devices. Traditional approaches, however, require significant data movement between memory units and PUF generation circuits to perform encryption, presenting considerable energy efficiency and security challenges.
